Every home is different. A ranch in Texas needs different coverage than a three-story townhouse in Boston. This room-by-room planning guide helps you design a Cybelerain system matched to your floor plan, lifestyle, and budget.
Front Entry Zone
Install a video doorbell with package detection, a door sensor on the front door, and an outdoor camera covering the porch and walkway. This high-traffic zone accounts for the majority of package thefts and front-door burglaries.
Ground Floor Windows & Doors
Every accessible ground-floor entry needs a contact sensor. Add glass-break sensors in rooms with sliding glass doors or large picture windows. Basement egress windows are frequently targeted—do not overlook them.
Main Living Areas
One motion sensor in a central hallway can protect multiple rooms when you arm "Away" mode. For open floor plans, position sensors to cover primary pathways without triggering on pets (use pet-immune models up to 80 lbs).
Garage & Secondary Entries
Garage doors are a common entry point. Sensor the door between garage and house, not just the overhead garage door. Side gates and rear doors need equal attention to front entries.
Perimeter & Backyard
Outdoor cameras with AI detection on driveways, patios, and pool areas extend your perimeter outward. Beam sensors are ideal for large yards where cameras alone leave blind spots.
Life Safety
Smoke and CO detectors on every floor, integrated with monitoring, protect against threats more common than burglary. Water leak sensors near water heaters and washing machines prevent costly damage.
